Thor, the Norse God of Thunder, had a hammer named Mjölnir. Mjölnir was considered a fierce weapon that could level mountains and summon lightning with every blow. In this poetry blog, every Thursday, (Thor’s Day), Mjölnir will forge only song - sing of the mysteries and beauties of the world.

THE ANECDOTE

The toxin and the tonic.
The thief and the saint.
The ransom and the bail.

We are these.
We are these.

One sunny day in Santa Barbara
I took my broken heart to the Mission
and handed it to a lame priest.
He gave it back sooner than I expected, saying:

Thorns have roses.
Thorns have roses.
